According to media reports, Karunanidhi had announced that he would no longer be seen in a white shirt and yellow shawl that is his trademark. Instead, he will wear black shirts. Karunanidhi on Friday sarcastically thanked Jayalalithaa for police denying permission for his party's human chain protest in black attire, saying the alternative plan of a pamphlet campaign had turned out to be more successful.
